NASA has confirmed that astronauts Sunita "Suni" Williams and Barry "Butch" Wilmore, who have been stranded on the International Space Station (ISS) due to issues with Boeing's Starliner, will return to Earth aboard a SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft in February 2025. Initially, they were to return after an eight-day mission but have been delayed due to propulsion system problems with the Starliner. NASA stated that a return with Starliner would be too risky. The astronauts, currently safe on the ISS, will now await their return as planned SpaceX missions continue.
